said by daveinpoway:In order to to encourage sales of this new model, Motorola should have allowed it to be provisioned as a SB5120 (or some other DOCSIS 2.0 model) now, so that it could operate in DOCSIS 2.0 mode until the customer's ISP upgrades to 3.0 service.
I think the problem is having a config file ready, ie Motorola provides a generic config file to the cable company, then the cable company decides what settings need to be adjusted for their system, and builds (or pays Motorola in this case to do it) a config file for each tier they plan to offer, tests it, tweaks it if nessesary, retests, etc.
Moto would probably provide a D2 version if requested/payed for, but Cox maynot be willing to release it, or may still be testing.
